What does make gloss paint go flat when it is drying?
I have seldom have great looking red or white gloss paint jobs direct from the can. I do the primer prep, let it dry, then apply 2-3 coats. When I check 20-30 minutes later the paint is barely gloss or totally flat. I get this from the Krylon old formulas. I have painted during the dry season, low or high humidity, cold weather... you name it, and get the same results. The only one that I have had great painting out of a can is with black. To "recover" I use Future which never fails me...
